Only until next Monday: WIELS Brussels have organised an online Vimeo screening of my video: ’14th Street’ 1994/1995 SD / Hi-8 video, 28 min ambient sound Find it on Vimeo.com on the WIELS channel or type in https://vimeo.com/399832032 from the press text: “Like a modern version of Hitchcock’s Rear Window,14th Street was filmed over the course of several weeks, always from the same vantage point of the artist’s second floor apartment window onto the street life. This rarely seen video is a fascinating document of a New York now long gone. The sound is from the street naturally mixed with the music playing in the room. Many people in confinement all over the world are now doing the same look out of windows but without much life going on.” includes music #suede #taize #plastikman #neworder #neilyoung #jimmysomerville #communautedetaize #wiels #wolfgangtillmans #wielsfromhome WIELS FROM HOME CHANGES EVERY TUESDAY AS LONG AS THE PHYSICAL GALLERIES IN BRUSSELS ARE CLOSED
